Le mystère de la chambre noire. Je t’aime je t’aime d’Alain Resnais by Martine Bubb

“…This film by Alain Resnais was underestimated for a long time, unjustly, because it is full of inventiveness and modernity, both from the point of view of the construction and of the definition of a "fragmented" temporality, typical of the psychoanalytical cure which includes here experiences of absorbement in darkroom. …”

Long-term volume stability of steel slag sand mortar and concrete by Zhenhao Zhou, Qiang Jin, Di Hu, Lin Zhu, Zihua Li, Wanzhong Su

“…The evaluation of steel slag stability typically employs short-term rapid methods, and research on the long-term stability of steel slag sand under natural curing conditions is relatively scarce. In this study, the rapid mortar bar method and alkaline-aggregate reaction method were used to compare the volumetric and apparent morphological changes in steel slag mortar and concrete under different curing conditions, with a focus on the effects of the steel slag sand aging time, substitution rate, particle size and curing conditions on the stability of steel slag sand. …”
